Editor ’s Note

The wellbeing of the workforce has always been an important are in a dynamic environment like the ICU. However, the turbulent nature of the last few years has resulted in sustained pressure on the health workforce. In some geographical regions, intensive care units and the health professionals who provide care in these environments were placed under extraordinary strain and this necessitated role changes, upskilling and working differently. We had to adapt, and do so quickly. Sustainability of the workforce and succession planning has never been more important and as Editor-in-Chief, I was conscious that this also applied to Australian Critical Care.
